Full Description of Book

Izaak Walton's Complete Angler described the adventures of two anglers
and has dourned book shelves for over 400 years. After being
commissioned in 1983 to make the Izaak Walton Foundation Collection of
Fly Fishing Rods as a Master Rod Maker and Craftsman noted at the time
in Tony Pawson's (World Champion 1982) Book "Competitive Fly Fishing"
as the best in the industry Internationally. It appealed to me to write
a more modern day
classical book for anglers to enjoy whilst at the water's edge,
covering the noble and time honoured pastime of angling and rod making.

The Complete Angler and Master Rodmaker takes you on a journey of
venues through Britain for Coarse, Fly and Sea Angling, spanning 50
years as a fisherman. Also discussing the rods I made and the tackle,
in addition to notable places celebrating the Coastlines and
Countryside of Britain.

This publication will not just be a book of reference, but crafted as a
diary and encompassing all the seasons of where to fish, making tackle,
finding bait and more. In the hope to create the nostalgic atmosphere
similar to earlier writings dating back over history and discussing
with you as the companion book owner, the ventures and the very many
old and new techniques over time, where I caught "many a fine fellow"
on memorable days in blighty and ate well.

I will also introduce you to the many characters on my journey through
life angling and many well known, who all had a passion for the art of
piscatorial pastimes at the water's edge, or colleagues of notoriety
who shared my profession in secluded workshops, crafting ones wares for
appreciative followers of the angle.

Izaak Walton himself, was a consummate angler in between the profession
and teachings of the Church and where their can be found in many
anglers, a deep connection of enlightenment from fishing. Where for the
many who pursue such a noble pastime, are often great philosophers, for
they are at their most peaceful and given time to think and ponder with
their maker.

I often say angling is where you can unite yourself again with nature
and re-juvenate the soul. There is no finer thing, than to be
surrounded by the picturesque canvas of nature and to witness from
sight, such beauty and from God's gift of hearing, become inspired from
the vibrant life of nature's fellow creatures.

Some days, I could walk tens of miles and just be taken aback from
nature's beauty and feel the warm glow of a summers day upon my
forehead in the heart of the English Countryside and with fly rod in my
hand, seeking that rise, or movement of a trout, on a still millpond
surface, where I could view Mother Nature in all her magnificence. Or
dangle from a pier, walking pillions in search of Mullet, or Bass, on
summer days and hearing above the tourists walking along, oblivious of
the world below them that was dark and still, apart from the perpetual
tidal flow of a flooding or ebbing tide.

I hope you enjoy this new companion, as much as I have enjoyed writing
such a work, that has been a complete joy and honour to have published
in the traditional printed form. Whilst some may decide to purchase
through a digital format, the printed version should be a humble
investment, for those memorable days at the water's edge, when there is
nothing biting, yet from such stories found within this book, I hope
will nostalgically rekindle and inspire ones noble pastime, when
seeking peace and tranquility.!
